Find the mass of the empirical formula.
You must be given a sample of some kind to calculate the weight or know how many moles are present. Then you figure out what one mol would be. The key step is multiplying the empirical formula numbers by what it takes to make 1 mol.
It would be clearer if we were working from some choices.
Solar Power, Microbial fuel cell. These two and I am sure other ways as well Solar power as you guess use the sun as a power energy source with non-waste and long lasting use. Microbial fuel uses the bacteria aka decomposers turn the sugars, nutrients into rich soil while also releasing electrons back into the soil and can be used as a energy source.
Using PV = nRT, we can calculate the moles of the sample.
874 mmHg = 116,524 Pa
n = PV/RT
n = 116,524 x 294 x 10⁻⁶ / 8.314 x (140 + 273)
n = 9.98 x 10⁻³ mol
moles = mass / Mr
Mr = 0.271/9.98 x 10⁻³
Mr = 27.2
Mass of empirical formula = 14
Repeat units = 27.2 / 14 ≈ 2
Formula of substance:
C₂H₄
Combustion equation:
C₂H₄ + 3O₂ → 2CO₂ + 2H₂O
1 mole produces 2 moles of CO₂, so 3 moles will produce 6 moles CO₂
Answer:
150 years i guess so? im nkt sure
